CTFF… ● Hire individuals interested in working

programs ○ Before & afterschool ○ Summer ○ Day
● Teaching Fellow Academy training ● Life coaching & personal development ● Future teachers!
What you might not know about us ● We aren’t JUST afterschool ● 1,500 of tutors want to become educators ● 720+ hours of classroom experience
annually ● 95%+ of TF’s feel that CTFF helps them in
their future career pursuits ● 40 hours of professional development
annually ● TF’s are tutors in the communities they
grew up in ● Largest employer of Fresno State
Students ● Nationally recognized for our efforts to
connect Expanded Learning and Teacher Education
Skills & Experience Gained ● Creating safety and community ● Trauma-informed care and youth development ● Activity design and classroom management ● Modeling and promoting social-emotional development ● Collaboration, critical thinking, continuous quality
improvement ● Family engagement and partnering with school personnel ● Purpose and passion
Current Needs ● Diverse, prepared, culturally relevant,
credentialed teachers ● Simple teaching credential pipeline
system ● College students need to make
money while going to school ● All schools & students need quality
educators
What is Working Against Us ● Decrease of interest in careers in education (AACTE, 2022, Murnane &
Steele, 2007)
● Baccalaureate and credential system hard to navigate (Carver-Thomas, 2018; Ingersoll & May, 2016)
● Average college student needs to work (Creasey et al., 2014)
● Competition ● Afterschool hours and experiences are misaligned with
credential programs (Snell, 2023)
● Afterschool hours not valued/recognized in teacher education (Snell, 2023)
Not nearly enough of these individuals are making it across the finish line…is that shame on them? Or can we band together to set them up for success.
